# Appendix C - Time Zones

The following example is the **`CPMCONFIG`** `time_zone` parameter for Israel:

```
CPMCONFIG
[SERVER]
user=demo
password=1
volume_option=new
time_zone=Asia/Jerusalem
```

 **To obtain the list of time zones or to set the time zone:**

1. SSH into the CPM instance using the logon `cpmuser` and the instance’s private key.
2. To obtain a list of all time zones, type: `sudo cpm-set-timezone`
3. To set the time zone, type: `sudo cpm-set-timezone <new-time-zone>`

For example, to set the time zone to 'New York', type:

```
sudo cpm-set-timezone America/New_York
```
